The majority of the time I do. It's because eating out is so expensive. I do enjoy eating out though as a treat! :-) What I like doing is trying to recreate meals I've enjoyed in restaurants at home. I started doing this over 20 years ago. It's a lot of fun. I actually took a Chinese cooking class, taught by the owner of a Chinese restaurant. When I don't feel like cooking I do have the occasional frozen TV dinner. Also I'm a big fan of leftovers, because I have multiple times a week when I can just heat them up and it's a true pleasure.

That sounds good,
What are some other meals from restaurants you try to re create?

We actually cook (read that as dh) on the weekends,
Then freeze several & then heat up from freezer for the week :)

I made Shrimp Pad Thai, Taco salad bowls, Salmon Teriyaki and a Salmon pasta dish. There's more, but I can't remember now. There's others I look forward to trying too. I'll have to try to find the notes I took that are probably still in the bottom of my purse....lol..

That's so nice that your hubby cooks too. What kinds of dishes does he make?
